Revising Upwards Again

After some hard fought but predictable loses to, let us face it, better teams, the Billikens have beaten another team I wasn't exactly expecting them to beat : Kwamain Mitchell scored 22 points, including two 3-pointers during a key second-half run, to lead Saint Louis to a 71-61 victory over Southern Illinois on Saturday night. Willie Reed added 16 points and 12 rebounds, and Christian Salecich scored 10 points for Saint Louis (5-3), which ended a three-game losing streak and improved to 5-0 at home. Kevin Dillard had 23 points to lead Southern Illinois (3-2) Great win for the Bills. This means I'm revising my win prediction upwards, from 8 to 10 wins. The improved consistency of this team is starting to impress me.
